Basic operation (Continued)

zIf a scene file is loaded while the volume 
operation mode is set to the absolute value 
mode, and then the VR ACTIVE button is 
operated, the set value will correspond to 
the volume angle and the loaded value will 
be lost.
If you want to operate the volume from the 
value loaded in the scene file, operate the 
unit while the VR ACTIVE button lamp is 
flashing or the operation modes of the 
volumes for WHITE and BLACK are set to 
the relative value mode before operating 
the VR ACTIVE button.
zWhen a scene file is stored or loaded, the 
button lamps for the file numbers of the files 
stored or loaded and the LOAD button is 
turned on. Press the LOAD button to turn 
the button lamp off. When the camera 
menu is opened or the scene file data is 
loaded from the SD memory card, the 
lamps for both of the File No. button and 
the LOAD button turn off.
zWhen the camera menu is open, 
operations of the scene file are disabled.
2) Items stored in the scene file
Refer to the Menu item Files for storing are 
checked with a “Yes” Since the same operation 
applies to storing on the SD memory card, when 
a scene file stored in a specific unit of the remote 
controller is used for another unit of the remote 
controller, load data from the scene file from the 
specific unit and store on an SD memory card, 
and then read them out from the card and store 
them in the scene file of the other unit.

Do not turn off the power when a scene file is 
being stored. Otherwise, data in the scene file 
may be corupted.

It is possible to adjust the scene file setting of the 
unit to the same state as the factory setting for 
the camera recorder using the following 
procedure.
However, the settings that cannot be set with the 
unit cannot be set to the same state.
1Set the settings for the camera recorder to 
the factory settings. For details, refer to the 
operation manual of the camera recorder.
2Connect the unit to the camera recorder.
Settings for the unit will be imported from the 
camera recorder.
3Execute RCU-FACTORY on the SYSTEM 
menu of the unit.
4Store the settings on the unit to scene files 1 
to 5 of the unit or an SD memory card.
Operation for recording
If the RECORDER ENABLE button is pressed to 
switch to the recorder mode, operations of the 
camera recorder are enabled.
If the REC INH button lamp is on, the REC S/S 
button on the unit will be inhibited. To start and 
stop recording, turn off the lamp of the REC INH 
button by pressing the button, and start and stop 
recording using the REC S/S button.

zWhile the REC INH button lamp is on, REC S/
S button operations are inhibited.
zIf the RECORDER ENABLE button lamp turns 
off by pressing the button while the recording 
part is operated, the state of the recording 
before turning off the lamp is retained and it is 
possible to operate the scene file built into the 
unit.
zIt is possible to set whether the value adjusted 
on the unit is retained on the camera recorder 
or not, by using RC-DATA-SAVE in the FUNC 
menu of the unit.
